I I have had the same problems as others with this washer for about three years. Originally it was throwing F11 and DL codes. Sometimes in mid cycle, sometimes the door would not lock, sometimes it would not UNlock. For awhile I would hit the top of the lid, and that seemed to work. Then I read about taking off the top lid, that worked for awhile, especially if I pushed on some of the connectors on the CCU. The connector in the MS2 slot was visibly loose, so I took off the top of the plastic casing on the CCU and would hold the conector down when there was a problem. Last week, the washer would turn on, the door lock would cycle the way it was supposed to, but the cycle would stop after a minute with a F11 code. I could not get it to go beyond a minute in the cycle without this occurring. I took the board out and resoldered the MS1 connector. There was visible black underneath that connector. Before I soldered, I noticed sparking under the white omron resistors during cycling when I was holding the loose MS1 connector in place. I even got shocked once or twice. I reinstalled everything and now the door lock just clicks and throws a DL code. The washer will not begin it's cycle. I followed the directions to run diagnostics (turn on washer, select spin/drain/select no spinI visibly inspected the connections to the door lock assembly. Also, the door lock was working before I soldered the board. I noticed on another post that someone suggested replacing the white omron resistors. They also mention three black resistors. I only see one black resistor. Could these resistors be the problem? WHat is the part number for the black resistors?

These boards are not meant to be repaired, so my advice would be to replace it and to check out the connectors and the wiring, particularly wiring and connections to the door lock assembly.

If you purchase the board from this site and it does not fix the problem you can return it.
